Question

Jamal has a full-time job as a veterinary technician. He works 40 hours a week and earns $412 per week. What is Jamal’s regular hourly wage?

Answer 1

Jamal's hourly wage is 10.3 $/hour.

Explanation:

The hourly wage is:

`(wage(weekly))/(hours(worked))`

Substituting in the equation:

`wage(hourly)=(412)/(40) =10.3(dollars)/(hour)`

Answer 2

I say the answer is $10.3 because when you do $412 divided by 40 you get 10.3
